If you reported those people like you should have, then I am sure they would have been forced to change their name or banned.
I think it was probably worse at launch with the wow tourists. I haven't seen any offensive names in a while. #championsonline

A program filter at this point is more of an annoyance than effective at enforcing rules to prevent offensive names.
Such obscene names like these deserve to be handled by an GM and not a program to enforce. #championsonline

Just recently I bought a computer for $400 that has a quad-core Phenom 2 X4 processor at 3.0ghz, 4 gigs of DDR2800 RAM, a 9800 GT with 512VRAM, a kickass motherboard, and a HDD with a 32mb cache and dual processors.

They really need to announce when the console versions are coming out, and whether or not they have M/KB support.

I wouldn't hold my breath for the console version of any mmo. FF11 is the only one that actually managed to happen so far.

We'll see though, the PS3 supports it already and I would assume most MMO development studios know that.

Then again, I haven't played lately thanks to the crappy beta schedule.

I doubt it.

It's supposedly got versions for 360 AND PS3 coming, if job posting descriptions on Cryptic's website are to be believed.

It won't. As far as I can tell, it'll launch on PC first, then 360 later, and PS3 some time after that. Probably better to do that and make sure it runs flawlessly on each system than to try and launch it on all three at the same time and cause performance issues.

So, there is precedent to his wish.

There's bugs that haven't been fixed for years, and a real level of imbalance amongst the limited powers pools.
Frankly, there just isn't enough people left playing it, at the least, on EU servers. Near the end of my last play through, a good day would consist of no more than 130 people on a server. Furthermore, Champions looks set to plunge the final knife in the CoX universe, so, I can't see myself spending my money on a renewed subscription.
Sad times for a game that had so much promise.
04/09/09
I'm going to try Champions, because it looks like the kind of game that CoX should have been.
As long as they make players feel like SUPERHEROES/SUPERVILLAINS as opposed to "slightly more powerful police/criminals" I think it will be fine.
I'm not in the beta, but usually that's a bad way to judge a game. In beta, CoH was an awful, AWFUL mess. Servers crashing left and right, powers not working right or at all, but then the second the final code went up, most of those issues were fixed.
So I'll reserve judgement until I can play the final game for myself. Hopefully Emmert won't fuck this game up too.

Yup, that's right, an MMO with an XBox controller.
That's not saying that it's going to be bad, since I have no way of knowing that, having never played the game, but I don't get very good feelings from it.
